that fontfiles/ fonts/DejaVuSans.ttf crash
« Reply #30 on: August 15, 2005, 08:12:53 pm »
seems to me that there are quite a few people getting this problem, i have it to, i can\'t load up psclient or updater or pssetup apps, don\'t know what the issue is, chaos i hope u guys figure it out soon, i just can\'t figure out why it happens on some peopls systems and not on others, odd, anyway, if anyone has figured it out it would be great for you to post the answer in this thread, thanks.

BTW: im running PS on a powermac g4 1ghz with 768 meg ram and a GeForce 4 mx video card w/64 meg vram. (not sure if that helps at all), still, thanks to dfryer for all the work he does. =)

I think it is not related to the missing font. If I put a font there it crashes anyway, it just does not complain about the font.
And pssetup doesnt complain about fonts but crashes anyway.

Mr. Sandman: as hramrach said, the application not-appearing in the dock means that it is not executable. You said you downloaded the latest Updater.jar which sets permission bits for you. Therefore, the only circumstance under which it would not work would be if you were not logged in as an administrator (or root user). As noted in the guide, you must be an administrator to set permission bits.

Everyone with the other types of crashes: I\'m talking to dfryer about this and hopefully we can figure out what\'s wrong.

EDIT: Ok, it appears that these crashes are being caused by bugs (surprise surprise) that were fixed just recently. I\'ll talk to dfryer about updating the repository with a new build. Hopefully, this will happen soon (tm), but don\'t hold your breath. ;)

yup... i\'ve been logged in as an admin the whole time. the folder \"PlaneShift 3d\" has been in /Macintosh HD/Applications. What\'s this about a font crash? I quickly scanned my planeshift folder, and there was nothing under /data/ttf/.
Also, this same startup crash happened when I tried to go from 0.3.009 to 0.3.010 using the java updater.

And I almost forgot, many thanks to the mac team (especially Dfryer and Cha0s for the help). It\'s good to know not everyone is PC only. Even though it doesn\'t quite work yet, 347.3 MB of game is something to be proud of.

Your welcome. I\'m glad to help. :)

Now, as to the permission bits issue, it is possible that I put an old version of Updater.jar on my site. I just reuploaded, so the new version is definitely there. Try downloading again and then running it from the PS folder as usual. It should set the bits on it\'s own after completing an update... *smacks forhead* Make sure the updater actually updates something (just delete vfs.cfg and check \"Update all files\" ); otherwise it won\'t set the bits.

Cool, thanx for the response ChaOs,

Should \'we\' stay away from setting the permissions throught the terminal in this case?

Cheers, :)

ah. never did delete vfs.cfg... just downloaded the positively new updater, and re-copied the files from the disk image. *crosses fingers*

by the way, would using chmod help at all with my situation? earlier on this board someone said that their client was working, and they had used chmod.

Hurrah! It works! Thanks a million to the mac dev team. All I had to do was delete vfs.cfg BEFORE i updated. I thought I could just replace it afterwards.

THANK YOU!!!

Good to hear Sandman. :) The reason, as I said, is that unless a file is actually updated, the updater doesn\'t set any bits.

Sikarda: Your problem is not a permission bits problem, as you actually see the windows pop up. If you could post a Console log (see this thread for details), it would be really helpful.

Yup, the startup bug. Hopefully a new build will take care of this. Sit tight for now!

I\'m having sort of the same problem as Sikarda, and getting the exact console logs. The difference is I was able to eventually create a character and log into the game, but as soon as I try to loot a rat that has something on it, my game crashes. Itemless rats will not crash my game and instead give me the \"has no loot\" message. Trying to go to the options window usually crashes it also.

All my window graphics are messed up as well and alot of my commands won\'t do anything. I\'ve also had problems with background graphics just going black, and I\'m unable to shift view with the \'tab\' button. I\'m sure there\'s more bugginess, but I haven\'t been able to do much yet.

I\'ve followed Cha0s\' instructions (using the new updater.jar, trying chmod, shutting off my sound in game, etc), but nothing works. Pssetup crashes as well, giving me the same console log as Silkarda.

I\'ve posted my psclient console log up on my webspace since it\'s kinda long to post up in the forum. If you\'d like to check it out, here it is:

http://www.tripshotpress.com/Planeshift/psclient.crashlog.txt


I also have two screenshots of my screwy window game graphics:

As always, many thanks to Cha0s, Dfryer, and everyone else for working on this.  If there\'s anything else I can offer, just let me know. I\'ll sit tight for now.

Could you post your system specs? Some of the problems you mentioned are known and have been addressed in CVS updates. Others may have to do with your system specs. Make sure to include graphics card (and VRAM), RAM, processor, and OS.
